Once upon a time, the king of the animal kingdom was Leopard.

Leopard was getting old and an heir had to be found.

So one day the king announced to everybody that he had a competition to determine who would be the heir to the throne and be the next king.

The aim of the competition was to throw the stick as far as possible the person who throws the stick farthest will be the heir to the throne.

He asked who wanted to go first and the elephant volunteered.

So the elephant threw the stick as far as possible

The elephant was feeling nervous about the results when it was time for the warthog to throw and he threw it as far as possible.

Next it was the monkey's turn to throw and he threw as far as possible.

Every body was proud of the monkey's throw. And finally it was the deer's turn to throw the stick.

The deer was shy and nervous so he refused to throw but the others encouraged him and convinced him to throw and he was confident.

The deer tried his best and made sure that he threw the stick as far as possible.

The results were about to come out and surprisingly the deer won the competition and became the heir to the throne.

Moral Lesson : Always believe in yourself!
